Louisville Golf Clubs

 

     

      Since 1974 Louisville Golf has turned heads, Louisville Golf Clubliterally, by turning wood into quality drivers and putters. Louisville Golf is recognized throughout the world as the leader in design and production of persimmon golf clubs.

 

 

 

Drivers-

  • Original Smart Driver- The Original SMART Persimmon Driver was chosen by Rankmark as one of the top ten drivers in the industry. The Original SMART Persimmon Driver features the sweet feel of Persimmon plus the advantage of wood's Gear Effect. This means you can work the ball again, and mis-hits on the heel or the toe will work back into the fairway.
  • SMART F2 - The SMART F2 Persimmon Driver was designed to give the average golfer more confidence, and the better golfer a scoring advantage in key areas of their round. With its natural attributes of accuracy and feel, the SMART F2 Persimmon Driver will have the lower handicapped golfer playing from the fairway more often.
  • SMART Spin - Simple design effectively minimizes slice spin Combined with the Gear Effect of Persimmon, this driver cures slices.
  • Thumper- The THUMPER Persimmon driver is the largest Persimmon driver ever made (285cc). This new streamlined design, which moves weight lower in the head for easier launch, creates a hitting area larger than any wood driver of its kind.
  • Thumper F.S.- f.s. stands for firestarter “set your game on fire” 285cc head, the largest Persimmon driver ever offered. Firestarter red finish on the solid Persimmon head. Handmade with over 100 hand operations.
  • Classic 50s- Known for its classic shape, this design has won countless tournaments in the hands of golf's luminaries - Ben Hogan, Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson and even Tiger Woods. The Classic 50s series are recommended for golfers who want to play a steel shaft.
  • Classic 30's - "If you love the tradition of the game you will love this driver. This driver will make a great addition to any collection and is a joy to hit." - Mike Just, President   You can play and own the same style of driver Bobby Jones & Byron Nelson used in the 1930's.

Fairway Woods

  • Niblicks- The playing characteristics of the NIBLICK cannot be duplicated in metals; metal “woods” just do not have the variance in density and weight needed to achieve a center of gravity (COG) as low as the NIBLICK. "We are so confident in our NIBLICK's ability to help your game that we will GUARANTEE it is better than any comparable club you have ever hit, OR YOUR MONEY BACK. We put our money where our mouth is, how many other golf companies do the same?" as stated on www.louisvillegolf.com
  • SMART- SMART fairway woods provide a feel and playability that cannot be achieved in metal. For golfers who enjoy the workability, accuracy and feedback that only Persimmon provides.
  • Classic 50's- Known for its classic shape, this design has won countless tournaments in the hands of golf's luminaries - Ben Hogan, Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson and even Tiger Woods. The Classic 50s series are recommended for golfers who want to play a steel shaft, but performs just as well for the golfer who prefers graphite.
  • Ginty- The Ginty remains one of the most popular clubs ever designed thanks to its effectiveness out of the rough and its ability to launch the ball confidently from any number of tricky lies.
  • Hy-Lofter Hybrid Fairway Wood- First permission hybrid club ever designed.  Combines both fairway woods and long irons into one club. Low COG provides high launches for soft-landing approaches.

 

Irons

  • LCd.31 Irons- The LCd.31 is our most forgiving iron. With a low center of gravity, wider sole for easy launch and undercut cavity for forgiveness, this iron combines the designs needed to maximize game-improving performance.
  • SMART System- This transitional set of irons capitalizes the best design aspects for each individual iron: perimeter weighting with a recessed cavity and thick topline in the long irons for greater forgiveness, and a muscle-back, blade style for playability in the short irons.
  • Dart Wedges- 70% of all golf shots are played from 120 yards to the pin. The DART Accuracy Wedges will help you play these important shots in the “scoring zone.”

Putters

  • 2601- Made of soft steel and handcrafted with a Persimmon insert, this classic putter design has been in the game since the days of Hogan and Palmer. But never has a classic design been so improved.
  • Louie3- With a moment of inertia that is nearly double that of a standard putter, the Louie line of putters possess incredible feel due to its wood center insert. This light center is also the technology for the high moment of inertia that stabilizes the putter head through impact making the Louie line incredibly accurate.
  • Earthwoods- Handmade with over 100 precise hand operations, each Earthwoods putter incorporates 3 exotic species of wood perfectly matched. Together these species produce a putter as unique as a fingerprint.
  • Authentic American Woods- Authentic American Wood putters are handcrafted from single species of premium hardwoods and face-balanced for greater accuracy.
  • STIMP- The STIMP putter utilizes weights you adjust in the face to allow three variations based on the green speed you are playing. In the past, we have offered three separate putters for the corresponding green speeds based on the Stimp measurement of green speeds. Now, those three putters are rolled in to one, with a new larger size!
  • True Centers- The TRUE CENTER putter line will give you a putting experience on the green like you have never felt before. Not too soft, not too hard: TRUE CENTER Persimmon Insert Putters are JUST right.
